Two executive orders, plus an earlier move against TSA screeners, stripped collective bargaining from 84.4% of the unionized federal workforce. A bipartisan bill to restore it passed the House 231-195 — every Democrat for it, 195 Republicans against — and the Senate has sat on it for eight months.
Republicans put a 12-year cap on congressional service to a House vote in 1995. Four of these men were there for it. Two of them are now in year 45. And five Republicans currently cosponsor a three-term cap while serving their 7th, 10th and 17th terms.
The 60 Plus Association was started with Koch money in 1992. It bragged in 1997 that it was the first seniors group to back privatizing Social Security, and it has pushed to turn Medicare into vouchers. Eleven House Republicans and an independent who caucuses with them took its award anyway.
POLITICO asked all 16 whether they'd return money from a congressman accused of assaulting his ex-wife and their young child. Brad Finstad returned $5,000. Mike Lawler said no. The other 14 wouldn't say.
A Texas judge threw out the registration rules for silencers and short-barreled rifles. Six days later, Andrew Clyde — who owns two gun stores — led a letter asking DOJ to skip the appeal and stop enforcing the law nationwide. Thirty-three of the signers have report cards here.
ICE plans to spend up to $20 million on gloves that deliver painful electric shocks — ten times what Susan Collins points to as the de-escalation reform that justified her vote. Here are the 201 Republicans with report cards on this site who voted for the money.
An LNP editorial said Smucker was lying to constituents about the shutdown health care fight. He hired Ken Cuccinelli and sued the paper that runs his own op-eds. Pennsylvania passed an anti-SLAPP law in 2024 for exactly this.
At his only 2024 debate Bresnahan said he'd oppose a federal abortion ban 'under any circumstances.' Then he voted for H.R. 21, and for a budget bill that shut the Wilkes-Barre Planned Parenthood out of Medicaid for a year. This July he launched a Women for Rob coalition.
Four days after 700 constituent letters were delivered to his office, Fitzpatrick went on Face the Nation and called in-person town halls a 'three-ring circus' funded by dark money groups he would not name. His constituents held one anyway, with an empty chair for him.
